How many persons there are who are fond Of
hot biscuit, but who dare not eat them through
fear of the consequences. We are glad to as
sure our readers, however, that the problem
has now been solved by the invention of Prof.
HorSford, of Cambridge. We aIlllle to IIors-
ford's Bread Preparation, the popular and we'll
known baking powder, and dyspepticS and all
others are assured that biscuits and other arti-
cles of food raised with this incompatible
Bread Preparation can be eaten hot with i'm
punity. and without the slightest injury or de-
triment. The explanation of this eNtraordn-
airy quality lies in the fact that the Bread Pre-
paration is composed largely of the phosplates,
and the phosphates are, according to the high
est authorities, very wholesome and nutritious.
The acid phosphate principle contained in the
Bread Preparation acts very beneticially upon
the digestive and assimilatve organs, so that
the processes Of digestion proceed without in
convenience. Acid phosphate has long been
known as very agreeable stimuant and tonic
to the digestive apparatus, and its use i'm our
food can only result in marked benefit to the
system. DR.. NJ. II. Henry, the celebrated ply
sican of New York, said: 1.-The use of Hors-
ford's Bread Preparation offers admirable
means for the introduction of a valuable ele-
ment into the system, with the food Of every
day life.''
Prof. IIorsford's Bread Preparation is for
sale by all dealers, and every package is war
ranted.

ing the sword of Captain Albert f. Thomas, a
letter written by Mrs. II. G. Ludwig, Of Thom-

commanded the 2d Maine battery in the various ac

at death, desire that the truth be known.
